  It does surprisingly poorly. I ran the bottom 15 questions through a rudimentary web scraper & recorded Google's 'knowledge box' responses. http://www.sharecsv.com/s/1a4ebb9acec12392376164b7e770b54f/EdisonToGoogle.csv http://www.sharecsv.com/s/1a4ebb9acec12392376164b7e770b54f/E... I'm surprised it doesn't have an instant answer for the heaviest and lightest woods. Some of its answers don't quite get the question either. What are violin strings made of? Well we can be sure it's not cat guts. How is glucose made? We're only told the make up of it. Full list of Questions converted to Google queries: http://pastebin.com/wsr7UrGK http://pastebin.com/wsr7UrGK I'm not going to run the full list because I don't want Google thinking I'm a robot for the rest of the day (Captcha will trigger for my network).

    > What are violin strings made of? Well we can be sure it's not cat guts Classically, the high e string is made of catgut, roughly cattle's gut.
